Raven Pendant
The playful Raven is a bird of Mysticism & Magic. Raven teaches us how to go into the dark and bring forth light.
Artist note: The Raven Pendant was inspired by a dear friend, Raven (Helen) Ruffner, who died in 2003 after a courageous 15 year battle with breast cancer. Raven began building a new log home a couple of years before she died. She asked me if I would make a sculpture that would look out over the James River from her home. Her request was for a life-size woman with her right arm over her left breast (that is the breast she was missing). That was the only instruction.
As Raven's illness progressed quickly, I began to create a pendant for her. This piece is meant to be a portrait of Raven, capturing some of her unique qualities. I put it around her neck a few days before she left us. She was in a semi-cognizant state, but we both shared tears of recognition and love.
She was an amazing woman who wanted to raft every river in the world. She was well on her way, rafting in New Zealand, Alaska and many other rivers throughout the United States. Raven shared her journey bravely with us and dazzled us even on the day she left her body as many of us sat quietly by.
When I take the raven pendant to shows, always I am intrigued by the stories it evokes in others. Then I tell them Raven's story. – K
The pendant comes on a 35'' black silk cord, but you can place it on a beautiful silver chain to dress it up.

About K Robins Designs
Expression through art and craft has been sacred artist K Robin’s lifelong companion. She began her work with symbols spontaneously about 25 years ago:
She shares, "From the life changes and chaos I was experiencing at the time, a door opened. I began carving my emotions, in the form of primal images, into soft forgiving wax. I find comfort, strength and insight in this work, and continue to study the tradition of symbolic art for healing. I go to the work bench much like someone else may go to the mat, their meditation spot, prayer or music room."
The spiritual and healing element of K’s designs is co-created in K’s sources of inspiration, from her own life and the Namaskra study of multi-cultural spiritual disciplines to the talent, courage, and wisdom of people she knows, loves and admires. All cultures surround
